Today's lesson was basically about using meta search engine and subject directory to find relevant infomation based on my selected topic which is 'The impact of legalising same sex marriage.
Different types of Meta search engines:
Jux2
IxQuick
Kartoo
Mamma
MetaCrawler
Vivisimo

Based on my personal analysis, what i've found out is that Subject Directories results are more consized, relevant and straight forward unlike Meta Search engine(MetaCrawler) which is more broad and information obtain might not be what I'm looking for. This way, it helps to save my time while doing my research.

The next thing I learnt today was doing citation in APA(American Psychological Association) format. The reason to do a citation is to avoid plagiarism and to inform and credits to the sources quoted. What is needed to cite a website is basically
Author's last name, first name. (Date of publication: year, month, day). "title: cap initial letters." Retrived month, day, year from www. URL

The last lesson learnt for today was doing site feed at our blog. Brilliant! I can easily check my friends blog just by clicking on the link my page.
